In this rich and vivid history of the Mao period (1949-1976), Denise Y. Ho examines the relationship between its exhibits and its political movements, arguing that exhibitions made revolution material. Case studies from Shanghai show how revolution was curated: museum workers collected cultural and revolutionary relics; neighborhoods, schools, and work units mounted and narrated local displays; and exhibits provided ritual space for both ideological lessons and political campaigns. Using archival sources, ephemere, interviews, and other historical materials, Curating Revolution traces the process by which exhibitions were developed, presented, and received. Its examples range from the First Party Congress Site and the Shanghai Museum to the "class education" and Red Guard exhibits that accompanied the Socialist Education Movement and the Cultural Revolution. With its socialist museums and new exhibitions, the exhibitionary culture of the Mao era operated in two modes: that of a state in power and that of a state in revolution. Both reflecting and making revolution, these forms remain part of China's revolutionary legacy today--back cover. 650 0 $a Museums $x Political aspects $z China. 650 0 $a Art $z China $x Exhibitions. $x Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art and state $z China $x History. 650 0 $a Political culture $z China $x History. 650 7 $a Art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815177 650 7 $a Art and state. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815435 650 7 $a Museums $x Political aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01030193 650 7 $a Political culture. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069263 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01424028 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Cambridge studies in the history of the People's Republic of China. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210023429.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A494843C580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
